In this review, we argue for a research initiative on wheat's responses to biotic stress. One
goal is to begin a conversation between the disparate communities of plant pathology and …

Background Lipidomics plays an important role in understanding plant adaptation to
different stresses and improving our knowledge of the genes underlying lipid metabolism …

Background The class III peroxidase (PRX) gene family is a plant-specific member of the
PRX superfamily that is closely related to various physiological processes, such as cell wall …

A sub-group of class I Caseinolytic proteases (Clps) function as molecular chaperone and
confer thermotolerance to plants. We identified class I Clp family consisting of five …

Introduction Wheat stem sawfly (WSS), Cephus cinctus Norton, is a major pest of common
bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and other cultivated cereals in North America. Planting of …

Abstract Background Wheat–Hessian fly interaction follows a typical gene-for-gene model.
Hessian fly larvae die in wheat plants carrying an effective resistance gene, or thrive in …

Background The plant lipidome is highly complex, and the composition of lipids in different
tissues as well as their specific functions in plant development, growth and stress responses …
